    Performance Testing Suricata The Effect of Configuration Variables On Offline Suricata Performance A Project Completed for CS 6266 Under Jonathon T. Giffin, Assistant Professor, Georgia Institute of Technology by Winston H Messer Project Advisor: Matt Jonkman, President, Open Information Security Foundation December 2011 Messer ii Abstract The Suricata IDS/IPS engine, a viable alternative to Snort, has a multitude of potential configurations. A simplified automated testing system was devised for the purpose of performance testing Suricata in an offline environment. Of the available configuration variables, seventeen were analyzed independently by testing in fifty-six configurations. Of these, three variables were found to have a statistically significant effect on performance: Detect Engine Profile, Multi Pattern Algorithm, and CPU affinity. Acknowledgements In writing the final report on this endeavor, I would like to start by thanking four people who made this project possible: Matt Jonkman, President, Open Information Security Foundation: For allowing me the opportunity to carry out this project under his supervision.

Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with the Invariant Sections being “GNU General Public License” and “GNU Free Documentation License”, with no Front-Cover Texts, and with no Back-Cover Texts. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled “GNU Free Documentation License”. Chapter 1: Overview 1 1 Overview GNU Wget is a free utility for non-interactive download of files from the Web. It supports http, https, and ftp protocols, as well as retrieval through http proxies. This chapter is a partial overview of Wget’s features. • Wget is non-interactive, meaning that it can work in the background, while the user is not logged on. This allows you to start a retrieval and disconnect from the system, letting Wget finish the work. By contrast, most of the Web browsers require constant user’s presence, which can be a great hindrance when transferring a lot of data. • Wget can follow links in html and xhtml pages and create local versions of remote web sites, fully recreating the directory structure of the original site. This is sometimes referred to as “recursive downloading.” While doing that, Wget respects the Robot Exclusion Standard (‘/robots.txt’). Wget can be instructed to convert the links in downloaded html files to the local files for offline viewing.

  • Emacs Speaks Statistics (ESS): a Multi-Platform, Multi-Package Intelligent Environment for Statistical Analysis
    Emacs Speaks Statistics (ESS): A multi-platform, multi-package intelligent environment for statistical analysis A.J. Rossini Richard M. Heiberger Rodney A. Sparapani Martin Machler¨ Kurt Hornik ∗ Date: 2003/10/22 17:34:04 Revision: 1.255 Abstract Computer programming is an important component of statistics research and data analysis. This skill is necessary for using sophisticated statistical packages as well as for writing custom software for data analysis. Emacs Speaks Statistics (ESS) provides an intelligent and consistent interface between the user and software. ESS interfaces with SAS, S-PLUS, R, and other statistics packages under the Unix, Microsoft Windows, and Apple Mac operating systems. ESS extends the Emacs text editor and uses its many features to streamline the creation and use of statistical software. ESS understands the syntax for each data analysis language it works with and provides consistent display and editing features across packages. ESS assists in the interactive or batch execution by the statistics packages of statements written in their languages. Some statistics packages can be run as a subprocess of Emacs, allowing the user to work directly from the editor and thereby retain a consistent and constant look- and-feel. We discuss how ESS works and how it increases statistical programming efficiency. Keywords: Data Analysis, Programming, S, SAS, S-PLUS, R, XLISPSTAT,STATA, BUGS, Open Source Software, Cross-platform User Interface. ∗A.J.

  • Replacing PGP 2.X with Gnupg
    Replacing PGP 2.x with GnuPG This article is based on an earlier PGP 2.x/GnuPG compatability guide (http://www.toehold.com/~kyle/pgp- compat.html) written by Kyle Hasselbacher (<[email protected]>). Mike Ashley (<[email protected]>) edited and expanded it. Michael Fischer v. Mollard (<[email protected]>) transformed the HTML source to Doc- Book SGML and also expanded it further. Some of the details described here came from the gnupg-devel and gnupg-user mailing lists. The workaround for both signing with and encrypting to an RSA key were taken from Gero Treuner’s compatability script (http://muppet.faveve.uni-stuttgart.de/~gero/gpg-2comp/changes.html).

Introduction This document describes how to communicate with people still using old versions of PGP 2.x GnuPG can be used as a nearly complete replacement for PGP 2.x. You may encrypt and decrypt PGP 2.x messages using imported old keys, but you cannot generate PGP 2.x keys. This document demonstrates how to extend the standard distribution of GnuPG to support PGP 2.x keys as well as what options must be used to ensure inter- operation with PGP 2.x users.
